Cheongdamdong alice

     Han Se-kyung’s personal motto is “L‘effort est ma force (Hard work is my strength).” She goes through life, with all its hardships, with an optimistic attitude. As a student, she entered many design contests where she won first place in many. In the very first episode, she gets hired at her dream job at GN Fashion, an apparel company, despite scoring badly in the interview. However, as it turns out, she is the errand girl for the president’s wife, Seo Yoon-joo who was her high school classmate and rival. Yoon-joo was #2 in their class and is determined to make Se-kyung’s life miserable.
As she sees how Yoon-joo’s life has changed compared to her own, Se-kyung decides to do exactly the same thing: marry a rich man. She enlists Yoon-joo’s help and embarks on the project to become a “Cheongdam-dong daughter-in-law,” an upscale, fashionable young lady who marries into the social upper crust in Cheongdam-dong. She meets Jean Thierry Cha , the youngest CEO in the luxury-brand market, who is an independent, successful but petty-minded businessman. Despite living “the life,” he harbours a dark side to him which is determined to get back at the people whom he thinks have hurt him. He also has a strong hatred towards women who are obsessed with luxury-brand products and those who marry for money.





Vampire Prosecutor

     Min Tae Yeon isn’t your typical vampire or prosecutor. Rather than drinking blood from innocent strangers, he opts for blood sold on the black market in the posh bars of Seoul. He also has the uncanny ability to tell where the victim of his cases died, and how they died based on their blood’s smell and taste. The only person who knows his secret ability is Detective Hwang Soon Bum , and both end up working together in a new joint department between police and prosecutors solving murder cases. Joining them are rookie prosecutor Yoo Jung In and intern Choi Dong Man .
Together, they solve murder cases, and each time Tae Yeon uses his “powers” to find leads on cases that seem unsolvable. But the one thing he can’t solve is: who was the vampire/serial killer that turned him seven years ago? And what happens when Jung In becomes suspicious of Tae Yeon’s “questionable” tactics in solving cases…
